History

''I.D.'' was founded in 1954 as ''Industrial Design''. The name was later abbreviated to an initialism; in the 1980s, the initials came to stand for ''International Design'' to reflect the magazine's broadened scope. Since 1954, the magazine published the Annual Design Review, a juried design competition curated by ''I.D.'' staff and industry practitioners. ''I.D.'' won five National Magazine Awards: three for General Excellence (1995, 1997, 1999), one for Design (1997), and one for Special Interests (2000). The last issue of ''I.D.'' was published in January/February 2010. In June 2011, ''I.D.'' magazine was re-launched online in partnership with Behance. The new ''I.D.'' magazine featured user-submitted designs that were curated to offer examples of innovative work happening today. By March 2016, the magazine's website had been shut down.
